I use car brite clay bar, you have to get it directly from them and they are located in Brampton. The thing does wonders but I've also used it to the point where it needs to be tossed out.

Why don't you try the nanoskin clay pad (fine grade), you will be amazed how good they are. I have the DA version of it and worked like a charm.

All you need for lubricating spray is soap and water, say baby shampoo and water- i got that on good advice from the 3M rep (a good friend). The clay bar needs to be tossed every 3 or so full car cleanings, especially if dirty then more often. Don't drop it on the ground ever. The CT/parts source stuff is just fine.

Do you recall the cost of the clay bar?

Don't quote me on it because it has been a while, but I beleieve it was $50 and you get two bars. I find they are the most abrasive clay bars that I've used and really work deep in removing impurities caked into the paint. I have used to the mothers kit and yes it will suffice but I find the car brite bar further superior. They're tire shine, car wash soap, all purpose cleaner/degreaser, rubbing compound, leather conditioner and air freshner are all great products too having used them in previous years as a detailer.

Clay bar is used to remove contaminants.....your car has yet to meet those things. That's why IT worked well
